The students were asked to smile, photograph something that made them happy, and even take a picture of something someone else would appreciate and send the photo to the person in a selfie. After the four weeks, it was found that all participants had an improved level of happiness.
So go right ahead, smile and take that selfie. It is good for your mood!
